Hypercementosis at root apex is a condition where there is increased cementum deposition at the root apex of a tooth. This is often associated with Paget's disease, a bone disorder that affects how bones grow and regenerate. Paget's disease can cause the bones to grow larger and weaker, leading to increased cementum deposition at the root apex of teeth. This condition is not commonly associated with diabetes, hypertension, or osteoporosis. Therefore, these options are incorrect.
